Con on your new homes. We'll miss you but know humanity is better off with you there.
-grats? new slang?
No usually my phones keyboard would finish con-gratulations when I double hit spacebar. But the last update decided my keyboard app I've been using for 5 years now with no issues needed Ai. And the Ai decided my 5 years of predictive typing is wrong and I ment con. I'm so annoyed I don't correct it half the time.
That is the best excuse for a typo ever, congrats to you. (Mine still autocorrects correctly, woo)
It used to be known as swyft keyboard. Then Microsoft gobbled it up a couple years back. Now it fucking has copilot. I have never fucking once started a sentence with "Con" I've started a whole fucking bunch with congratulations! (I work in education and that's how I text and email parents when they've been taken off the after school program wait list. Wait list because we don't have the funding to support more children. But my phones Ai got a carve out on this recent budget bill... We are sooo fucked.)
